I've reviewed this rose fragrance before but feel I must do so again, as I really love it. I am so sensitive to most fragrances, even those that claim to be 'almost' completely natural, and have found they invariably give me a headache or a rash, make me feel nauseas, or make me cough. NYR fragrances, which really are completely natural with no synthetics, are the only ones that I can enjoy wearing with real confidence and no ill-effects. This is a beautiful rose fragrance, perfect for day or night, and is fresh but with depth. I like the frankincense one too, but this is my favourite. Really hoping Neal's Yard will add to this collection with some more beautiful fragrances to give more choice.

Packaging

Lovely but really needs new packaging. The glass needs to be dark to protect the perfume from light. Why not make the bottle dark blue like all other NYR products? No one wants to keep perfume in the box...Response from NYR ‘Thank you for your feedback, and we do offer the following advice for storage of our fragrances “Care: We recommend keeping your Pure Essence Eau de Parfum in its box, as perfume is a delicate beauty that can be affected by light and heat.” However we will pass your comments onto our packaging technologist regarding the potential use of blue bottles for the fragrances. Best wishes.’

Romantic Scent

By Suzie from Brighton on

I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend last year who always spritzed himself with it every time we would enter Neal's Yard. It has an uplifting, woodsy, romantic scent that lasts all day, sometimes we could even smell it the next day. Using only 2 spritz a day, this lasted us for almost a year. High quality, very calming, chemical free perfume that I will definitely be buying again soon for Christmas. If you're looking for a romantic winter perfume, then this is the one for you! X

I really liked the idea of a rose perfume, saw this and wanted to try it. On first sniff I was not at all sure, but the smell after a few minutes once it is dry is so natural and outside-y flowery goodness! I'm a farmer so am outside all day and it is lovely to put this on on a rainy day and have a little waft of lovely smell on a rainy day on the hill. It lasts for ages and I love it. Thanks Neals yard! A honeysuckle perfume next please! (my favorite smell!)

Fabulous

I developed a horrible itchy skin irritation from my usual perfume each time it touched my skin, it became so severe that I've had to stop using it and look for an alternative. Every perfume I have tried has had the same effect. I'm very happy to say that No2 does not irritate my skin and it smells amazing too. I'm delighted. Thank you NY. I will be trying No 1 next.

Great price, excellent quality and beautiful scent. I also have the Frankincense Parfum too, which is just as wonderful.

Beautiful, proper rose

I love this rose fragrance, especially because its 100% natural with no synthetic fragrance or fixatives. Its fresh but also has depth and is easy to wear both day and night. Not sure why the other reviews show one star because when you read the comments they are all very positive, the reviewers must have meant to give more stars! Like others I'm also hoping for a neroli fragrance!

Lovely!

One of the only few perfumes that I like and does not make me ill from the smell after a while. Cannot stop sniffing my wrists! I had to take a star off for the packaging design.... very sorry but it would have been nicer if it was in the NY's trade mark blue bottle!

Wonderful scent that I never tire of when spritzing over my neck and wrists. So much better compared to conventional synthetic concoctions you find so readily.
